A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is very interactive. I like to begin a tutoring session by helping the student set a goal for the session. We then begin work on the material. During the session I encourage the student's learning by asking open-ended questions to encourage critical thinking. With writing assignments, the pen is always in the student's hand and, with guidance, the student makes choices about his or her writing. I use a method I call guided discovery, which encourages students to think in depth about their subject, discovering new methods and information with guidance from me.
In addition to having a Master of Arts in English Literature, I have extensive experience teaching English at the college level. I have spent the last three years as the Writing Corner Director at a Kansas community college, administering all of the writing tutoring for the college. This has provided me with ... read more

Bringing Out The Potential In Students...

My method of tutoring is to work with students where they are and add to their skills, to accomplish the final outcome, preferably an "A" or "B." Some students are visual learners and some are informational learners, or some students combine the two. The potential I see in students is what I try to bring out and have them realize they are capable of going a step further, to reach their goal. The importance of education and the students' continuance of same cannot be stressed enough.
I started out tutoring elementary students in basic math and English grammar while I attended college part time in the 1980's. I continued tutoring young students and adults in the 1990's, tutoring Basic Math, Basic and Intermediate Algebra, Basic Geometry, English Composition, Speech, Study Skills and the Sciences. In addition, tips were given to enhance test-taking skills in hard-to-Ace subjects ... read more

Resume Writing is one of my top subjects!

In addition to owning my own accounting business and having a Bachelor's of Science degree in Business Management as well as a second Bachelor's of Science degree in Accounting, my experience includes working in corporate, public, and government accounting for the past eight years. I am currently working for a small public accounting firm as a Senior Tax Accountant , running my own firm where I specialize in small business accounting and start ups, and tutoring students and business owners in accounting and business subjects.
I describe my teaching style as student-oriented. I focus heavily on each particular student's unique learning requirements. It is my opinion that every student learns in a different capacity and teachers must spend more time with each individual student, accommodating the lesson plans to fit the student’s needs.

My professional background is in marketing, admissions/career services in higher education, and theology. I have taught undergraduate level theology for over two years at a local seminary and am currently working on my doctoral dissertation in Catholic studies. Evaluations from my students have indicated that I am able to break down complex ideas into manageable concepts. I am also very comfortable with international students.
I believe in making learning fun and relevant for my students. Beginning by learning about the student's baseline comprehension of the subject matter, I then determine the steps which are needed to motivate the student toward the final goal.

Share your knowledge to someone else.

Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.
I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education.

Teaching with Passion!

I believe that every individual has gifts, talents, and learning styles unique to them, so I challenge and motivate my students to meet their highest potential as independent thinkers. I have found this to be the most effective method for students in learning the subject best, being engaged in sessions, and gaining the confidence to solve tough problems and tackle challenging assignments on their own. My Psychology background has been beneficial when proactively working with a variety of students for different subject areas. Generally, students take in and process information in different ways, that is why I strive to really get to know every students unique learning style and passions, and tailor my approach to meet their learning needs and goals. My passion and value for education is evident in my teaching style and in my work as a tutor. Passions often go unnoticed in the classroom, s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always enjoyed English and Writing. I have kept a journal since I was in the 1st grade. I scored very high in these areas on my ACT's, as well as in all of my high school and college classes. I am enthusiastic, kind, positive and approachable. I passed my state boards on the first try because I feel I have excellent study skills. I enjoy working with people and find joy in helping others. I was a substitute teacher for a short period of time before taking a job as a counselor in 2004. In 2006 I moved to the Blue water area and have been employed as a medical social worker at a rehab and nursing center. I am looking for an opportunity to help others succeed in school and life.

More About This Tutor...

As a student at the University of Detroit Mercy, I worked as a tutor for two years. I helped other students struggling in mathematics and biology classes. Also, my senior year in college I worked as a Teaching Assistant for a Microbiolgy lab. In addition, I did student teaching for a Catholic Middle School.
Many people have different teaching skills and techniques. I do not believe any technique to educate a child is better than any other technique. Each child learns differently. Understanding the fact that children learn differently is crucial. The teacher must be able to adapt to the child's learning style. I believe I have the ability to use an array of teaching styles to help children. I would enjoy the opportunity to help children learn.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a holder of both Bachelor and Masters Degrees, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree in Psychology, and a Masters in Community Development. Both degree programs being broad based and socially aware, I learned a great deal about how people think and about how to convey ideas with differing thought processes. In addition, I have learned grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last ten years I have tutored students in English, psychology, the arts, and the social sciences.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children have the ability to obtain and retain knowledge. I am available to help your child find his/her own academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate, yet disciplined, firm, struc ... read more

I am a graduate of Macomb Mathematics Science Technology Center (MMSTC). This is a magnet program reserved for the top 72 high school students(per grade level)in Macomb County. Throughout high school I tutored my friend and neighbor, Mike, who suffers from a learning disability. I received a B.S. in Fishery and Wildlife Management (ecology, biology, and general management) from Michigan State University in 2006. I worked two years in recycling after college. I have recently worked with the big rivers biologist for the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. I feel that the opportunity to tutor biology, physics, and/or mathematics students would be a great way for me to share my knowledge, experiences, and abilities.
I find that the most important aspect of teaching is to consider the student's perspective. It wasn't that long ago that I was a student myself, and I found the mos ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Thomas Edison said, "Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. I am extremely persistant. Whatever it takes to get someone to understand a concept I will strive to discover it. Most of all the process of learning should be kept exciting so that the pupil is left yearning for the next lesson.
I went to public schools in East Detroit, Michigan. In eighth grade I set a personal goal to attend the University of Michigan. I never had private tutors. My strongest subject is math. Mr Learmont, my junior high school history teacher would frequently say, "Take care of these books and these books will take care of you." It was that inspiration that raised me to love learning and in turn teaching others.
